Hand knit bedspread

My mother got out this beautiful bedspread was knitted by her mother, my Grandmother who died before my Mother was married. She said she never remembered her mother working on it. It's in very good condition. When we looked closely, the pattern is quite detailed and you can't even see where the squares are sewn together. We assumed it was done in squares and connected later.

I was going to comment "treasure" too! With spirit woven in!
My mother had a spread (not handmade) that was similar and I always loved it!
